The coat is great. Quality,
"The coat is great. Quality, great material etc. the sleeves are abnormally short. As a result I cannot wear it. I’m just over 30 days so I cannot return. Shame, because I have 509 gloves, helmet, and another coat"
As versatile as it gets, the 509 Forge Jacket Shell focuses on the fundamentals of weatherproofing and wear-ability. Fully seam-sealed 5TECHâ„¢ 150D fabric with 10k/10k waterproof/breathability stops any storm in its tracks. Details like water-resistant zips, a cinch-able hood, and gaiters at the wrists and waist keep you covered on all fronts. Its versatile uninsulated design gives you the freedom to add 509 mid and base layers underneath on colder days.

"Absolutely love this jacket! Clean look and keeps me warm and dry!"
"Absolutely love my coat from 509 Haven't had any issues and it's a great fit and comfortable."
"Super lightweight but kept me warm and dry in the mountains. Fits small in the chest had to upsize. Love the style and functionality of jacket."
"I got this for our son for Christmas. It is the perfect weight. He uses it for skiing and just outdoor winter use. He wanted something thinner then his snowmobile jacket for everyday use, this is a perfect buy it Fits well him well and keeps him warm with just a sweatshirt underneath."
"I wear an allied suit when actually riding, but that’s not convenient for shop/trailer work. I bought this on sale and wear it in rain and snow to get stuff done. It’s got good room for layering, plenty of pockets for tools and such… and I feel it would be a good backup option so much so that I got rid of my other backup that was too heavy to wear around the shop. I even wear this jacket in the rain for doing yard work in Seattle in the fall and winter. Very happy with my purchase. I’m just shy of 6’2”, about 160, so on the thin side, 39” chest, and I ordered a medium."
